Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

So AC IV has been announced and I'm pretty hyped for it as always when a new Assassins Creed game is announced So what are your opinions on the game, character etc.

In my opinion Edward Kenway looks like a total badass and the Assassin-pirate thing also seems pretty cool. I really hope that Edward Kenway will be a little bit more interesting than Connor, something like what Ezio was

I am not at all hyped about this, Assassin's Creed was good, but Ubisoft has milked this series like an old cow. 2 was my game of the year 2009, and every year since then, it's been on a downward spiral. Plus they'll be launching this around the same times as Watch Dogs which is like a High Tech Assassin's Creed already.

Way to go Ubisoft, you ruined one of your best franchises, please stop now before you be come UbEAsoft.

I'll get it if I get more info and it seems better then *** Creed 3. Horrible game. If this is more like the Ezio games I'll buy however. At least the combat was good in those with a good story and guards did not attack you for just walking around

There's a tyrant king with a reptile heart
And he's started a wave of crime now
From his ship high above he abducted my love
For the fourteenth or fifteenth time now

I understand the hate for yearly AC releases but I just wonder why this isn't a problem with Pokemon games? X and Y are also being released only a year after the release of B2/W2.

But did you also forget that usually main Pokemon games aren't yearly? This is like the 4th(?) one that will be released one year from the last. For Pokemon this is barely the 2nd one and Im sure that the streak won't continue after X&Y

This game is pretty much 'not sure if want' for me. I was happy that they announced fourth Assassin's Creed (and I liked AC3 excuse me), but since the story is backtracking I'm bit disappointed. I was hoping for something totally new.

Anyways, yes, it seems very early. I probably won't be getting it. Not until a long anyways. I havnt even finished III
whenever I go to the map, or pause it, it gets stuck on the loading screen. And I just became an assassin. So I've been playing NSF most wanted 2012 or halo 4 now. I really think they just work on making it look amazing, to get people to buy it, then laugh in their face at how disappointing it is.

I think Hankka had an interesting point actually. Yes it has become a yearly thing, but a lot of games have the same thing going on. Some pull it off good, some don't (*cough* CoD *cough*). I actually liked Connor and III a lot. The sea missions were really cool and there's going to be a lot more of it in IV (40% of the game from what I've heard). And yes, there should be an AC thread .

Some games not a lot of games.
The boat mission doesn't feel like Assassin's Creed at all. Its like a Pirates of the Carribean game.

The trailer looks ok, a little to action orientated and Ubisoft is killing it with the yearly release but I have still some hope. I'll wait and see.

If you believe in Jesus Christ put this in your profile and don't just ignore this, because in the Bible it says,
If you deny me, I will deny you in front of my Father at the gates of Heaven.

About the action thing, I noticed in AC3 you're hardly an assassin at all, you're more of a soldier than anything. You never really had to "assassinate" anyone, you just ran at them and murdered them with your axe. All AC games have open conflict, obviously, but there's way too much in AC3.

AC V is in development. Kinda pissed actaully, Ubi is sacrificing AC for profit. They have yet to convince AC IV is worth getting, now this?
